I have a pair of breeding bronze. I haven't tried hatching any yet but I do witness plenty of 'action' so should be fertile. If this is any help, pm me and I'll get back to you.

I have Narragansett turkeys - first batch is due to hatch next Friday so I can let you know then if fertility is OK.  I have two unrelated breeding groups - both sets were hatched on the farm, in 2011 and 2012, have survived a terrible winter on our exposed hilltop and are very docile.
